Cushions in a home are as important as the furniture. The ideal cushion will support your back, neck & shoulders as well as being an attractive finish to your couch stool or bed.

 

There is a wealth of cushions to pick from now including novelty shapes like star cushions, bow cushions or heart cushions which make a great decorative finish to your colour technique but are not wholly practical. The standard square cushion with the right filling is ideal & better still is bolster cushions as ideal lumbar support cushions. Large cushions provide back support on a couch or bed.

 

Bedding Cushions in Perth can be made from any number of different materials including leather & even vinyl but the most popular fabrics are cotton, linen, chenille, velvet & silk because they are not only very beautiful, comfortable or breathable but also washable. Cotton fabric includes chenille, linen & velvet most cottons can retain their shape when wet & can withstand high temperatures. The tactile & soft feel of velvet & chenille cottons is created using different weaves.

 

Silk as a fabric is a bit more fragile to abrasion & can be weakened by sunlight. On a more positive note silk cushions not only have a luxurious & soft feel but are beautiful to look at & can usually be hand washed. In addition silk has the enviable reputation of being the strongest natural fabric in the world.

 

No cushion would be complete without the inner cushion pad. Care ought to be taken when selecting your cushion pad as this will make or break the cushion's support & appearance.

 

The lowest priced cushion pads available are polyester filled. They look & feel comfortable as well as being light but do not last as long as micro fibre or duck feather cushion pads.
